Time To Leave
As he was all grown-up now, it was time for Steve Jr. to leave his parents’ home for further studies related to software in the University. He had a perfect childhood with completely understanding parents, who always believed in his dreams and encouraged him to do what he likes. The young boy was sad to leave his parents behind but was also quite excited about the new life that lied ahead of him. Even at this point, he had no clue that soon his past will stand face to face with him.
Not Interested In Past
“We belonged to an adoptee/birth parent clearinghouse (ALMA) that connects people who are looking for each other but never received any messages. When Steve turned 18, we asked him if he wished to continue registering on the site and he declined,” his father said in an interview. But Steve’s interest was soon to return about this topic.
Imagination Starts To Run Away
When Steve Jr. started living away from his parents, he started thinking about his birth parents which were a matter of laughter in his family. “With his blonde hair, blue eyes, and a light complexion,” his father explained in an interview and further added, “[he] does not strike one as being of Polynesian extraction.” This was now a confusing fact for him as the records said he was Hawaii but his features were opposite.

Not Hawaiian
Intrigue Gets The Better Of Him
Back in 2011, Steve’s eye stopped on one story as he could relate himself with the story of this African-American woman, Carlina White. As an infant, she was taken away from a hospital in Harlem, New York City. She had no idea of her real identity while growing up in Connecticut.
